There must be a problem with your kernel tree, I fetched a new 2.5.59
archive and I still get a reject.

I played a bit with this, try this:
static sigjmp_buf jmp_env;
static int do_jmp, need_resize;
static void winch_handler(int sig)
{
if (do_jmp)
siglongjmp(jmp_env, 1);
need_resize = 1;
}
before calling into dialog add this (maybe as macro):
if (need_resize || sigsetjmp(jmp_env, 1)) {
init_wsize();
resizeterm(rows + 4, cols + 5);
/* rebuild menu */
}
do_jmp = 1;
After the call reset do_jmp. It seems to work mostly, but the e.g.
menu_instructions are not correctly redrawn, any ideas?

I found some other issues. :)
The Esc key doesn't seem to work correctly, in some dialogs (choice,
string) it doesn't work at all, in menu dialogs <Esc><Esc> doesn't work
as it did.
After selecting help in choice or string dialog, the help text stays in
the background, what I find a bit confusing. Is it possible to
save/restore the old background?

You can thank Alan. :)
